Von Miller says he supports Vance Joseph 100 percent

After the Broncos started 3-9 in 2010, former coach Josh McDaniels was fired. Denver dropped to 3-9 after an eighth straight loss Sunday and now many fans are calling for Vance Joseph to be fired, too.

Granted, McDaniels was in his second season, but finishing under .500 is obviously not what the Broncos had in mind for Joseph’s first year.

While most fans want Joseph fired, linebacker Von Miller says he still supports his coach.

“100 percent,” Miller said on Sunday evening. “He’s our coach. Just not putting wins on the board. It’s . . . I don’t know . . . it’s everything is going wrong for us. Coach, it’s been over the place.

“If we could level out for him we would make his job easier as well. We have all types of situations, all types of problems going on. He’s doing the absolute best that he can do with everything that is going on.”

If Joseph is fired before the conclusion of the regular season, assistant head coach/running backs coach Eric Studesville would be a logical interim replacement. Studesville went 1-3 as an interim coach after McDaniels was fired in 2010 and is widely respected across the league.
